Poorheuse, Horrors.

LYNcHBURG, Va. Feb. 26.-The Daily
Advance publishes a startling sensation
from Amherst court house concerning the
horrible condition of the county poorhouse,
as developed upon investigation by the
grand jury. The female inmates complained
of treatment too appalling to be described,
and abuse from Supt. Sidney NJ. Dawson
which it is hardly possible to believe.
1t is questionable if such a den
of infamy could be found else
where. The poor women were
almost naked, and one was discovered in a
cold room without fire, wearing only an old
calico wrapper. Vermin and filth were
found in every department. The county
authorities furnish the superintendent with
bed clothing for the use of paupers, but the
grand jury found only five blan-
kets, and all of them were in
possession of lnulatto woman, a
favorite of the superintendent. 1t was
also discovered that nameless crimes were
Systematically carried Oh that it was danger

Belief That It Will be Necessary to Call
an Extra Session of
Congress.
The Appropriation Bills in State of
Baokwardness Never Before
Known.
Only One of the Entire Lot Has
So Far Reached the
President.
Work in the Senate and House,
The Texas 'SOutrage''
Inquiry.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Despite the
wish of the president and of members of
both houses of congress to avoid the neces-
sity for called session of the two houses,
or special session Of the senate, the opin-
ion is entertained that matters in respect to
he appropriation bills are rapidly drifting
into position, if they indeed have not al
ready reached it, which make caNed ses-
sion inevitable. Mr.. Allison says that in
all his services in both houses he has never
known such state of backwardness in re-
gard to the appropriation bills, and for this
condition of things he declares that neither
the senate nor its committee on appEopria-
tiOnS is responsible. Mr.. Beck, a member
OF the senate appropriation committee, de-
clares his belief that it will be impossible
during the remainder of the session, to i'm
iSh the appropriation bills. The matter Of
appointments and combinations contributes
to the influences which may produce a
called session. The opinions respecting the
presidents power to appoint the interstate
commerce committee during recess OF the
senate are widely variant. Mr.. Edmunds.
Mr.. Pugh. Mr. Harris and other senators of
prominence declare without qualification
that the president has 10 shadow of consti-
tutional or legal right to fill an office newly
created when the senate is not i'll session to
give its advice and consent, and that his
power in the matter is limited to filing va
cancies temporarily which may happen dur
ing the recess. 1t is held that should he do
so they could not qualify, draw their salar-
les OF legally perform any duties.

VIII English Arrested at New York
for Seduction.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Feb. 26.-Several
months ago jewelry agent named Ernest
Goodman married young Jewess living in
this city, and few days later deserted her.
taking with him about 5000 of her money
and some articles of jewelry, One day
last week it was learned that
Goodman was arrested in Baltimore on
similar charge of deserting a
girl he had married there and the Pittsburg
wife left immediately for the Monumental
City to enter suit against him for desertiOn.
To-day Chief Of Police Blackmore received
letter from a lady living at 102 Allen
street, New York city, who also claims to
be Goodman's wife. She says that he left
her year ago, and he

a gold watch when he deserted her. From
all that can be learned the New York wife
is No. l. After leaving his Pittsburg wife
he went to Cincinnati under an assumed
name. He was engaged to lady there,
and on trying to escape with some of her
money was arrested. The detective here
notified the. Cincinnati authorities to hold
Goednan, but before the message was re-
ceived he had settled his trouble and
been released. This was four
months ago. He now turns up in Balti-
more, working the same game. The Pitts
burg wife says she understands that he also
has wife in Philadelphia. The police au-
thoritieS here are OF the opinion that Good
man makes his living through numerous
matrimonial alliances. He is rather good
looking and appears to have been wonde T.

Nina Brooks Death.

ST. LOUIS. Feb. 26.-Nina Brooks dead
body is lying in rear room of a small
drug store at the corner of Turtle street and
Cass avenue, in this city. The fact of her
death was not reported to the coroner until
this afternoon, and no official inquiry has
been made concerning the cause. The fol-
lowing facts, however. have been learned:
Yesterday afternoon the clerk at the drug
store of which Henry Dauber is proprietor
heard pistol shot in rear room and a
moment later Mr., Dauber rushed into the
store crying, ''She has killed herself; she
has killed herself" In his right hand was
grasped smoking revolver and his manner
was greatly excited. The clerk seized the
revolver and took il away from Dauber for
fear that he might do himself some harm,
and then summoned physician, who, upon
making an examination OF the woman, pro-
nounced her dead. She had been shot in
the mouth and the bullet had scat
tered blood and brains over the wall
and bed upon which she was lying. A few
minutes later a friend of Mr.. Dau bers
came to the store and after conversing
with him a minute they left the store to-
gether. Mr.. Dauber and Samuel H. Peters,
the clerk, were arrested to-day, the former

Maud 5 Not For Sale.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-It was Frank
Siddalls. of Philadelphia, who offered
Robert Bonner S1OO. 900 for Maud S, and it
is said that he has supplemented this offe I
by another of $685. 900 with certified
check within twenty-four hours after the
acceptance for the amount. Concerning
this Mr.. Bonner said:
have not received the offer of S125, 900,
and 1t would make no difference if 1 had. If
you were to come in here and propose 10 buy
say my little finger, you would naturally ex-
pect to pay pretty good price for it, and
furthermore you would be pretty safe in
Offering Il big price for it, because you would
know very we'll that I would not sell the
finger. Well, would as soon think of part
ing with my little finger as with Maud s.
Maud is simply not for sale; that is all
there is to the matter. If anybody were to
offer me $500, 900 or $300,0G0 it would be all
the same. There are some things we do not
part with for money and MaudS is one OF
them. If people like to advertise themselves
by making large offers for her 1 suppose that
is ell right, but she will not be sold.

Cardiff Called a Coward.

George La Blanche was seen after the con-
test last night. Being questioned as to the
sports in the Northwest, where he has been
stopping since the Sullivan combination dis
banded, said:
What do think of Cardiff Well, think
he is one of the biggest towards that lays
claims to distinction in the ring. Why, in bis
fight with Sullivan, when the champion broke
his arm, he endeavored to foul the latter at
every opportunity. Whenever the champion
would make feint Cardiff would run around
the ring like heightened calf. II they ever
come together again, which think they will,
Sullivan will whip him III one round. Pat
Killen can whip Cardiff in no time; so can
Frank Glover. Cardiff is too big a coward to
fight either OF them. Billy Wilson. the col
ored heavy weight, can whip Cardiff in fight
to finish. will bet my money that L can
whip Cardiff in fight to a finish myself. Do
you know why / think so? 1t is simply this,
that don't think he will stand any punish
meut at all. He is big enough, but he hahn t
got the nerve.

Scrans of Snnrfs.

John A. Wilson, Nick Young's latest add-
ton to the league staff of umEires, is q COL
lege graduate and an educated and gentle
manly eXemplar of the game. He stands six
feet high and was an expert amateur player.
He has had considerable experience, too, in
umpiring, and he is a cool, nervy and excel
/ lent judge of the points of the play. besides
being well up in the tricks of players.
The promise is that he will be first-class
man in the position.
The Clipper, in an article on notable batting
blu 1885, speaks of Douthett, of the Decatur
Qll. } club, making on Sept. Is total of four
teen bases Oh safe bits-a home run, three
three-baggers and single. This is evidence
/ on its face that Douthett is great hitter, but
in the three months that he played in SLPaul
he hardly made fourteen singles. He has
been signed to play in the Hastings, Neb.,
club.
Wallace Ross wants q chance to dispose of
Champion Bubear in this country, and says
he will row the Englishman three or five
miles for $500 or s., 600 side. 1t is said by
Hanlan and others that Bubear is hard
man to beat at nye miles. and Ross will give
the English champion his choice OF distance.
The Athletics viii try the plan of spreading
a tarpaulin over the entire diamond during
threatening weather and light rains. It is
thought this will obviate the necessity of
postponing good many games because OF
short, heavy showers. The idea is worth a
/ trial.

work, to places of amusement ETC.; that he
professed great love for her and called for
her at her home: that his attentions became
matter OF, public notoriety, and it was
generally believed that they were engaged.
She charges that in July, 1886. on one Of
his visits, after entering he locked the door;
| that she begged him to open it and let
her out, but he refused. She charges
| that he then assaulted her criminally. She
alleges that through fear of disgrace
and exposure she did not make
public the offense. but refused to again see
him. Subsequently, she says. she in
formed him of her condition, and alleges
/ that he took her to physician and had an
abortion performed. She claimed that

in case she married any one else. She wa:
obliged to leave her position, and assert:
